Mr Hampstead
Six-race maiden; twice highly tried (including in the Derby) last June then fared better back at novice level on final outing (1m6f); gelded since; may progress now handicapping over 2m.

Forza Orta
Defied a 6lb higher mark at the York Ebor festival (2m) in 2023; has failed to repeat that form since and folded tamely on reappearance; drops back further in grade.

Artisan Dancer
Five-time AW winner off lower marks; close second at Kempton (2m) on seasonal debut; may remain competitive but is no certainty to go one better, being 0-9 on turf.

Zimmerman
Respectable fourth of six (off 1lb higher) in this race on reappearance 12 months ago but didn't peak until York success in July; perhaps one to look out for later in the campaign.

Surrey Belle
Progressive over hurdles for current yard until a disappointing effort (in hat-trick attempt) last time; three-time Flat winner and may still have more to offer in general; enters calculations.

Little Peter
Bumper/Flat winner who made the frame over hurdles last time; hasn't lived up to market expectations in last two attempts under this code but can't be written off yet.

Diamand De Vindecy
Close second in this contest last year and looks in the right form to go one better, having registered an emphatic success at Pontefract (2m2f) on reappearance; respected.
